Question Response
Will the station be sharing equipment with another broadcast television station or stations (e.g., a shared antenna, co-location on a tower, use of the same transmitter room, multiple transmitters feeding a combiner, etc.)? If yes, enter the facility ID's of the other stations and click 'prefill' to download those stations' licensing information. No
Briefly describe transition plan Continue operation on existing tower, transmission line and antenna. Build a new tower and install new transmission line and antenna. Modification of the existing tower is more expensive than the new tower construction.
